DISCLOSURE OF CONTRIBUTIONS

Disclosure of Contributions to New Jersey Election Law Enforcement Commission (ELEC)

N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.27 establishes a new disclosure requirement for business entities. It requires that,

when a business entity has received in any calendar year $50,000 or more in public contracts with

public entities, it must file an annual report with the Election Law Enforcement Commission

(ELEC). The report shall disclose any contribution of money or any other thing of value, including

an in-kind contribution, or pledge to make a contribution of any kind:

To a candidate for or the holder of any public office having ultimate responsibility

for the awarding of public contracts, or,

To a political party committee, legislative leadership committee, political committee

or continuing political committee.

The report will include all reportable contributions made by the business entity during the 12 months

prior to the reporting deadline. ELEC will be promulgating a form and procedures for filing

commencing in January 2007. ELEC can also impose fines for failure to comply with this

requirement.

While the local unit has no role in this process, it is recommended that all bid or proposal

specifications and contracts should include language notifying business entities of their potential

obligation under the law. Such language could read as follows:

Starting in January 2007, all business entities are advised of their responsibility to file an

annual disclosure statement of political contributions with the New Jersey Election Law

Enforcement Commission (ELEC) pursuant to N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.27 if they receive

contracts in excess of $50,000 from public entities in a calendar year. Business entities are

responsible for determining if filing is necessary. Additional information on this requirement

is available from ELEC at 888-313-3532 or at www.elec.state.nj.us.
